Here we’ll share practical perspectives, understandings, insights and realisations about self, the mind, the physical, the world, consciousness – and everything and all else in-between as the multi-dimensional existence that we currently consist of and exist as; and within that: practical support and assistance methods/tools/techniques of facing this existence as self in the process of standing-up and standing-together in changing ourselves to change the world.

In this post, I am discussing what ‘Realising and Living my
Utmost Potential’ practically means – through showing how I have (and still do)
live and realise this Principle.

The wording of this Principle is very specific, for you first
have to REALISE your utmost potential before you are able to LIVE it. Then, we
also have to look what ‘your Utmost Potential’ practically entails – with
‘practically’ I mean: how exactly do you visibly live and apply your utmost
potential in everyday life to contribute your life experience as well as that
of others.

We’re going to start with defining ‘Utmost Potential’.

I have found within my personal process / life
experience – that I so often underestimated myself to the extent where I
couldn’t fathom me having any ‘potential’, where I in a time within my life
believed that “this is all I will ever be” / “I will never reach / attain
anything ‘more’” – you know, that experience within yourself of just “settling
for less”.

I have mostly found what hampered my seeing / realising any
potential within myself – primarily came from approaching challenges in my life
and immediately reacting to them in a way of “I can’t do this” / “I won’t
be able to this” / “I’m going to disappoint everyone”. So, without even
trying – I sell myself short, leading to giving up and so keeping myself in my
self-proclaimed limitation / ‘settling for less’ inner and out experience. This
is where and how in such moments – I never allowed myself to see what I am
capable of, what potential I do have and what not.

STEP 1: Recognizing
you have Potential

The process of realising and living your utmost potential –
starts with the first step of RECOGNIZING you have potential! This is why, for
some, when looking at the words ‘utmost
potential’ – you kind of ‘hit a blank’ within yourself: it’s because you
haven’t yet established within yourself the fact that you do have potential in
the first place.

By this I mean the following: I have met a person in my life
that gave me a lot of responsibility. No one before this had ever given me
responsibility / considered giving me responsibility because of how I behaved
in my life: I was generally viewed as undependable and irresponsible. Obviously,
the responsibility of this was solely on me – yet, I used to take it very
personally and often blamed others; refusing to see the fact that it was in my
actions that I was showing myself and others what, who and how I was accepting
and allowing myself to be. It took one person to – instead of ONLY looking at
my actions, still recognize the fact that I do have potential: it was just that
I myself didn’t yet realise
it / see it. Because this individual had in their life walked a similar path –
initially seeing no potential in themselves, to realising that even when they
were in the toughest of times within themselves / their lives where all seemed
lost: they still had potential – this allowed this individual to show others
how self-potential still exists, it’s always here, you only need to recognize
it by being shown and then foster it within yourself.

This is the important point within it all: we don’t often
realise the extent to which we can become self absorbed in our Mind, such as
for example what I had found with becoming the belief that I wouldn’t amount to
anything in my life, which caused me to not even recognize the fact that I do
still have potential – even when all seemed lost within myself / my life. This
is why and how, with the support and assistance of those who were able to /
already have stepped out of such absorption / beliefs in the Mind – you can
assist and support yourself to realise the potential for potential to be
fostered within you and so lived.

As I have been shown the potential of my potential – and
from the showing, lived and applied myself to change myself, I will through
walking my process in this blog, show you the potential of your potential. But,
as with all things – I can only SHOW you
the way: you have to walk it.
